The Night the Blogfather Came to Town

"Did you hear that?"

"No."

"That sound.  You don't hear that sound?"

"... No.  What the hell are you talking about?"

"I could have sworn I heard a sound."

"Pretty sure you didn't."

"... Nope, there was definitely a sound."

"You sure you're not just losing your mind?"

"Pretty sure.  You know what it sounds like?"

"... Are you waiting for me to give you an answer?"

"Yes.  Well, not anymore.  Anyways.  It sounds like, like... like a blogstravaganza."

"What the hell is a 'blogstravaganza'?"

"A gathering of bloggers.  And blog readers.  And their various accompanists."

"What are blog 'accompanists'?"

"Boyfriends, wives, girlfriends, husbands, buddies, enemies... you know, pretty much anyone who wants to show up."

"Ah.  Who the hell came up with 'blogstravaganza'?  That's a stupid name."

"Bob Tarantino."

"Who the f**k is Bob Tarantino?"

Saturday, February 17th, 2007 on the second floor of The Fiddler's Green, located at 27 Wellesley Street East in downtown Toronto, just east of Yonge and across from the Wellesley subway station.  Join us as Damian Penny makes his annual pilgrimage to the centre of the universe - everyone is welcome.  No cover and nothing is provided (other than good conversation and the occasional prospect of a brawl) - pay your own damn way, deadbeat!  See y'all there.

UPDATE: 8pm.  Don't know why I keep forgetting to mention that.  People will start showing up at 8pm.

It would be fun to see you again, Bob.. but.. on the 17th, it's going to be even more fun, for me, to watch my 15 year old participate in a "Battle of the Bands" in Ottawa that night.

Hope you all have fun, though.
